"Germbusters"
As part of our new Wellness Plan, students in our First grades and CI rooms are learning how to become "Germbusters" by properly washing their hands on a regular basis. Many thanks to one of our parents, Jill Wise and her Mom Marlene Forgrave, who attended a training session in order to learn the program so they could bring it back for Sugarbush students. Take a look at some pictures click here.
Wendy Gahm's Art Link
Please check out Wendy Gahm's online art portfolio on Artsonia.com. She says, "I love using the Artsonia site because it showcases the students' work. It gives them a chance to share their artwork with family members and friends who live in other parts of the state, country, or world. Please feel free to use the comment section and leave comments for our artists. They will be able to read these comments at home." To view the site, click here.
THANK YOU!
Anchor Bay Community Foundation
We are pleased to report that the Anchor Bay Community Foundation has awarded to Sugarbush Elementary a $500 grant for our Patriotic Songs CD Program. This year the students in the art class created thank you cards to go along with the CDs. The cards and CDs are being mailed to servicemen and women overseas as a thank you for all that they do.

The Board of Directors was very impressed with our students’ achievement and appreciative of our staff’s efforts in fostering the growth of Patriotism within the student body. We sincerely THANK the Foundation for their generosity. To date we have received a total of $3,000 in donations toward our program.
Are You Moving?
If you will be moving out of the District and will not be attending Sugarbush in the fall, please give us a call at (586) 598-7660 to let us know. It is very helpful in planning class sections and materials if we are aware of projected enrollments for the next school year. Your advance warning will also allow us to prepare school records for forwarding to the new school. Also, if you become aware of any new neighbors in your area, please encourage them to register their children as soon as possible.
Non-Custodial Parents
We are more than happy to cooperate in sending materials home to noncustodial parents, upon request. PLEASE REMEMBER TO INFORM THE SCHOOL AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH SCHOOL YEAR OF YOUR CURRENT ADDRESS AND NEED TO RECEIVE THIS INFORMATION. A call to our building, (586) 598-7660, at the beginning of the new school with the appropriate information is generally all that is required to set the process in motion.
